I have a fresh install of Anaconda, which came with Spyder 3.3.3. I used Anaconda Prompt to install Spyder 3.3.4. Then in Anaconda Navigator I select the gear over Spyder 3.3.3 and select Update. I get a message reading:
spyder==3.3.4 cannot be installed on this environment. Do you want to install the package on an existing environment or create a new environment?
I don't want to install this on a separate environment though. What's going on?
Edit: When I use Anaconda Prompt to update (not install, sorry) Spyder this is what I get:
